Software that runs your business, front to back.

I build the websites, apps, and internal tools small businesses run on, from the page that wins customers to the software that keeps things moving behind the scenes.

What I build

Everything your business needs to run online.

01

Websites

Fast, modern sites built from scratch or rescued from an outdated one, mobile-first and shaped around winning you leads and sales.

02

Web apps

Dashboards, customer portals, and booking or membership systems. Software that lives in the browser and does real work for your business.

03

Mobile apps

iOS and Android apps that put your product or service in your customers' pockets, built to feel native and easy to use.

04

Tools & automation

Internal tools and automations that cut the busywork by connecting the apps you already use so tasks run themselves.

How it works

From first call to launch in weeks, not months.

A simple, predictable process so you always know what's happening and what's next.

01

Discovery call

A short conversation about your business, your customers, and what you need built. No jargon, no pressure.

02

Proposal & scope

A clear, fixed-price plan covering exactly what gets built, what it costs, and when it ships.

03

Design & build

I build it and share progress as I go, so you can give feedback before anything is final.

04

Launch & handoff

It goes live, and you get everything you need to run it, plus me on call if something comes up.

About

Twenty plus years building the software businesses run on.

I'm Christopher McGrath, a senior full-stack developer based in Cleveland, Tennessee. For the last twenty plus years I've designed, built, and shipped the software companies depend on every day, from the public websites that win customers to the platforms and internal tools running quietly behind the scenes.

When you hire me, you get me: the person who scopes it, writes the code, and is still around after launch. No account managers, no junior hand-offs, no mystery invoices.

01

One point of contact

We scope the project together, I build it and share progress as we go for your review, and I'm the one who answers after launch. Nothing gets lost in a handoff.

02

Enterprise-grade, your scale

The same engineering behind platforms used by national companies, right-sized for your business and your budget.

03

Built to grow with you

Clean, well-organized code, so what I build keeps working as you get busier, not falling over.

04

No jargon, ever

You'll always know what's being built, what it costs, and why. Plain English from the first call to launch day.

Case studies

Built for real businesses, at real scale.

A few projects from 20+ years building software that companies depend on every day.

Service Drive platform

Led the full rewrite of an enterprise SaaS platform used by automotive dealerships nationwide, moving it from a monolith to a multi-tenant microservices architecture with API-driven services throughout.

Mobile app · manufacturing

Quote & order tracking
